BXBX NOVEL Chapter 620: Marriage
Chapter 620: Marriage
Daryl and Kenzie were both quiet as they arrived at the hospital. Kenzie tugged Daryl\'s arm and whispered, "Relax, my father won\'t eat you alive."
Daryl did not comment. He held the basket of fruits in his hand as they walked towards his room. He silently inhaled and exhaled to relax and calm his nerves. He was aware that Kenzie\'s father did not like him at all so he felt a bit awkward to visit him however, he wanted to see and check his condition as well.
They soon arrived at the VIP ward and Kenzie excitedly went inside, pulling Daryl along with her. Her father was watching the television with Butler Mark.
"Dad," she energetically greeted and kissed her father\'s cheek.
"I was wondering what took you so long but I guess you were busy going on a date right?" Jack teased his daughter openly which made Kenzie\'s cheeks turn red.
"How are you doing, sir?" Daryl asked while he handed the basket to Butler Mark as per Kenzie\'s instruction.
"I\'m doing good, son. It\'s nice to see you again. I guess my daughter doesn\'t have any plans to let you go. You see once she set her eyes onto something or someone she will never back down from fighting for it…" Jack openly commented with a proud smile, also referring to how his daughter fought her way to her position with full determination and in a very short span of time.
Daryl could feel how proud Kenzie\'s father was and he understood that he was not only referring to him but also at how she easily succeeded in obtaining the whole management for Chua Group.
He smiled and nodded.
"Now, there\'s only one thing this old man wants to witness before I undergo that life-threatening surgery," Jack commented.
"Huh? I thought we already had an agreement, dad… No more delays, please. The doctor said that we have to do the surgery as soon as possible!! The more you delay the riskier it gets!"
"I know dear," Jack cut his daughter off. Then he looked at Daryl and said, "You see, there\'s no certainty that I will be in good health after the surgery… It\'s difficult for me to fully recover without any complications… And as a father, I would like to walk my daughter down the aisle before anything bad happens…"
"Dad!" Kenzie shouted with an angry face.
"Don\'t say such things!! Can\'t you see that I\'m working so hard just to make you proud! You mustn\'t say things like that! Make sure you recover well and by then you can walk me down the aisle!" Kenzie mumbled, trying her best to suppress the tears from falling out but she just couldn\'t restrain it.
"Hey come here. Of course, your dad here will do his best to fight and return to you, dear… Just that I want to do this simple thing before I do the surgery." Jack explained.
"Even so, why are you saying that in front of Daryl when we are not in a relationship yet. Don\'t be like that and push him to do things he\'s not sure of. That would be unfair for him!" Kenzie scolded, suddenly feeling embarrassed in front of Daryl.
Jack chuckled and said, "Alright, will you choose among the candidates I picked?"
"No!" both Daryl and Kenzie burst in the chorus then the two looked at each other.
Jack smiled looking at her daughter and Daryl. It looked like his daughter already won her heart\'s goal
Daryl scratched his head and looked at Kenzie\'\'s father then whispered, "It\'s okay. I will marry Kenzie and you can walk her down the aisle as early as tomorrow sir but it won\'t be a grand wedding? Is that okay?"
Kenzie was about to say something but her father signaled her to stop.
"It\'s okay son. We don\'t need a grand wedding now. A simple church wedding will do with our closest family and friends as the witness as long as I can walk down the aisle to give away my only daughter," Jack reassured.
"Alright sir, I will handle things with Kenzie so be at peace. You can schedule your surgery as early as tomorrow as well after the wedding if the doctors approved it," Daryl suggested.
Kenzie just looked in disbelief both at Daryl and her father.
\'Just what the heck is going on with these two?\' she inwardly complained because both men seemed to be in understanding without her knowing. But then she could not help but squeal inwardly at the thought of getting married to Daryl.
But at the same time, her shoulders dropped, wondering if it could be a real or a fake marriage Daryl would arrange just for the sake of her father to get his surgery soon.
She heaved a sigh, wondering if her father thought of it for a long time or her father was just simply helping her out with Daryl?
"You should start calling me dad or father now, son. At first, I was hesitant since I wanted Kenzie to be with someone who could handle matters for her efficiently but seeing how she can actually be independent and do things now on her own then as a father I will support her to whomever she like and be with," Jack explained to Daryl with an apologetic look.
Daryl gulped and let out a half-smile.
"You two should head out and make all necessary preparations for tomorrow. We must not delay things further. I really want to walk my daughter before I do that surgery. To be honest, I also want a grandchild before surgery but that one will take long," Jack added with a frustrated sigh, making both Daryl and Kenzie turn crimson red.
"Geez, Master Jack… You can still have a grandchild because I\'m sure Kenzie and Daryl will work on it fast as a gift for your recovery soon…" Butler Mark unconsciously interrupted, making his Master laugh while making Kenzie and Daryl both embarrassed.
Kenzie bit her lower lip, as she stared at Daryl who was smiling bashfully at her father. She wondered what was really going on Daryl\'s mind at that moment. Was he doing things willingly?
